• Our overall thoughts on this episode,
• The origin of the title of this episode in the opening crawl from Revenge of the Sith,
• How, once again, this episode is out of continuity order,
• New character art that updates the look for Ahsoka and Anakin,
• The push to deregulate the banks,
• Senate debates in both the Republic and the Confederacy of Independent Systems,
• Ahsoka meeting Lux Bonteri, a Separatist teenage boy, and
• The tragedy that derails the peace process.
